Take heed to yourself and to
the doctrine. Continue in
them, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.
1 Timothy 4:16

Ephesians 4:17-24
There are countless philosophies about the correct way
to exercise. Some say you need high intensity for short
periods of time while others believe low intensity for long
stretches is the key to being healthy and staying fit.
Regardless of their different opinions, fitness professionals
all agree on one thing: Consistency is the most
important factor in any exercise regimen. No matter what
philosophy you subscribe to, the only way you will see
results is with regular activity.
The football legend Dan Marino
once said, "I just want
to be consistent over a long period of time. That's what the
great players do."
Marino understood that the way players became great
was through consistency, which fueled continuous growth
in their sport. What they did on a regular basis affected
them as individual players and their ability to play on a team.
In the same way, the time we spend
strengthening our
relationship with God will directly affect our relationship with
those around us in a positive way. When we have a healthy
spiritual life, God will be able to use us in fresh new ways to affect
the lives of others.
Lord, teach me the importance of
consistently spending
time with You; that in order to be effective for You,
I must be affected by You on a regular basis.
